How to transform a CIF file in a QuantumEspresso input

When you work with experimentalists, often you have to deal with atomic structures reconstructed from x-ray scattering in the format of CIF files. Here I briefly explain how to transform these files in a QuantumEspresso input using Mercury code. Open the CIF file with Mercury then follow the points below: 1) remove the duplicated atoms, … Read More
